Recent articles about Kion Wilsonen-usCardinals Sign QB Jeff Mathews To Practice SquadThe Arizona Cardinals have signed QB Jeff Mathews to their practice squad on Monday, according to Darren Urban,
The Cardinals released LB Kion Wilson from their practice squad to make room for Mathews.
Cardinals GM Steve Keim said a move was likely to be made before the end of day “for emergency purposes,” but their plan was to move forward with Ryan Lindley and rookie Logan Thomas as their top-two quarterbacks.
Keim mentioned that QB Drew Stanton does not have a timeline to return from his knee injury, despite recent reports that mentioned he could miss four weeks.
“I think it’s one of those things with that type of knee injury, everybody heals different,” Keim said, via Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. “And I know that ESPN and some other outlets have put a timeline on it. It’s extremely difficult to do.
During his senior season at Cornell, Mathews threw for 2,953 yards while completing 63 percent of his passes to go along with 22 touchdowns and 13 interceptions.

Those seven players are: running back Alvester Alexander, wide receiver Justin Brown, guard/tackle Bryant Browning, guard Chris Hubbard, wide receiver Kashif Moore, safety Ross Ventrone and linebacker Kion Wilson.
Moore, Wilson and Ventrone all signed futures contracts last offseason. Brown was drafted by the Steelers in 2013, while Hubbard was signed as an undrafted free agent. Alexander was signed during training camp, while Browning was added at the end of the regular season.

Not only is Garvin out, but starting outside linebacker Jason Worilds is also questionable for the game with an abdominal injury suffered last week against the Green Bay Packers. Worilds is expected to give it a go, however.
The Steelers will also get outside linebacker Jarvis Jones back this week, but with Chris Carter and Stevenson Sylvester both expected to see playing time at outside linebacker during the game, Wilson will likely be needed to play on special teams in addition to backing up both Lawrence Timmons and Vince Williams at the inside linebacker positions.
If Wilson is indeed promoted on Saturday, the Steelers will of course need to make a corresponding move in order to open a spot for him on the roster.

Wilson had been waived on Saturday to make room for rookie defensive end Brian Arnfelt, who had to be promoted to the 53 man roster due to the team being short healthy defensive linemen.
Arnfelt dressed for the game Sunday night against the Cincinnati Bengals but only saw two plays on defense.
Wilson has bounced on and off the Steelers 53 man roster this season after initially making the team out of training camp.
